The real fun happened, yet again, in test seven. The SunMoon was only about a minute into the test, when the Green Power decided it was time for a spectacular light, sound, and smoke show. BANG! After airing out the lab, we took the CUG-700B apart to see what had happened.

A picture of the modular connector PCB. Here, we can finally see what blew. Take a close look - can you guess what went up around all that fuzziness in the center of the picture? C'mon... guess. Seriously... take a guess. Hey! Rotten peaches really hurt!

The brown fuzz marks the location of what used to be a Teapo capacitor, which had been launched straight off the board and into the fan.

Not for that long, ordered a new power supply yesterday (hooray for paychecks!!!) and will be getting a Corsair AX1200 sometime this week. For now it may seem like an excess but I plan on a watercooled system with at least two 680s.

I'll just leave this here: Long story short, I installed windows 8, noticed my 1ghz capable vanilla 580 was acting stupid, did all sorts of tests short of installing 7 again... used a flashlight checked the PCB, noticed there was residue on it, shined light onto the fitting above it....

My heart dropped, there was water leaking onto the 580, freaking out, took it apart cleaned the pcb, slapped on the stock cooler, and realized FUCK, i have a modded bios on it so that ruins the chances of RMA again unless I flash it to stock. Stuck it into my old Q6600 platform, and voila it booted, furmark stable and everything was good.

Pieced everything back together and I get this: ( actually this was during the strip down process )

I managed to actually do some decent cable management on my rig; here's what it currently looks like:
Mind you, this case (Raidmax Smilodon) has literally no cable management features, so i am quite proud of myself.
